The world's most eco-efficient server: Triple your performance, while cutting your power and space consumption by 3X. That's the kind of throughput and power savings you can expect from the incredible Sun Fire T1000 Server. If you need massive, horizontal scalability and extreme rack mount compute density, this is the server you've been looking for: A throughput-optimized server with up to 32 threads per processor, all in a tiny footprint - and available at an unbelievably low price.
UltraSPARC T1 processor with CoolThreads technology offers six or eight cores with four threads per core
Delivers more than five times the throughput per rack of Xeon-based servers running Java applications
Over 2x throughput of a dual processor Xeon processor server with 5x the server efficiency measured by the new SWaP (Space, Watts and Performance) metric
A range of Linux distributions have been certified for the UltraSPARC T1 processor. Please click here for more information.
Available as a Sun System Pack, which combines the Sun Fire T1000 with the right services as one offering
Solaris 10 with CoolThreads servers represents a dynamic combination of smart operating system and sheer computing muscle that dramatically increases datacenter resources while seriously decreasing energy bills and maintenance costs.
Learn about the range of services and offerings enabling you to upgrade to Solaris 10 on CoolThreads servers, including the industry's only Binary Compatibility Guarantee.
Upgrade in Volume
Customers who purchase select volume packs of Sun Fire V215, V245, V445, T1000 or T2000 servers can apply the trade-in allowance from their old server to multiple servers to increase the total trade-in value.
Optimize your system performance with Sun System Packs. A Sun System
Pack combines Sun's proven technology with award-winning SunSpectrum
Support services to deliver improved system availability and operational
efficiencies. Moreover, the combined system and support pricing is less
than the traditional cost of purchasing the items as separate and
individual components, and in some cases less than the the price of the
system with only warranty.

Logical Domains (LDoms) is Sun's new server virtualization and partitioning technology for CoolThreads servers. LDoms is free and the most open virtualization technology available. Unlike proprietary virtualization technologies, LDoms can save you nearly $10,000 per server.
What's New - Solaris 8 Containers and Solaris 9 Containers Software
The Solaris 8 Containers or Solaris 9 Containers software and services
accelerate the migration of application environments currently using
Solaris 8 or Solaris 9 to new systems running Solaris 10. These new
tools allow you to capture the entire environment of the Solaris 8 or
Solaris 9 source system and then transfer this environment to the
target Solaris 10 system without application modification or emulation.
Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 Containers software is available as free download.
